ignore: correct handling of nested rules overriding wild card unignore problem: filesystem_iterator loads .gitignore files in top-down order. subsequently, ignore module evaluates them in the order they are loaded. this creates a problem if we have unignored a rule (using a wild card) in a sub dir and ignored it again in a level further below (see the test included in this patch). solution: process ignores in reverse order. closes #4963
